Avengers: Doomsday lastly has the possibility to make clear Captain America’s complicated revelations from six years in the past. In Black Widow, Alexi Shostakov, aka the Crimson Guardian, mentions Captain America a number of occasions, and is alleged to have met him and even defeated him within the Nineteen Eighties. After all, his argument does not maintain water, contemplating that Steve Rogers remained frozen from the Forties till the occasions of The Avengers.
The obvious clarification can be that the Crimson Guardian was merely mendacity about his relationship with Captain America. It isn’t exhausting to imagine, however there’s nonetheless a small likelihood that there was some fact within the Crimson Guardian’s phrases.
One chance is that he encountered one other Captain America, and one other chance is that point journey was at work. And with Chris Evans returning as Steve Rogers in Avengers: Doomsday, the latter may very well occur.
Crimson Guardian can meet the Nineteen Eighties model of Steve Rogers
Harbor and Evans each seem in Avengers: Doomsday as Crimson Guardian and Steve Rogers, respectively, so a gathering between the 2 shield-wielding heroes is bound to occur. It will make excellent sense for Alexi’s relationship with Captain America to be acknowledged in a roundabout way if display screen time have been to be shared.
Over the course of the story, Avengers: Doomsday might take it a step additional by revealing that they have been really assembly within the Nineteen Eighties through time journey. Steve Rogers has the means to journey between timelines, and will theoretically have met the Crimson Guardian as he claimed.
It is unlikely that the Crimson Guardian would have defeated Captain America truthful and sq. in a combat, however it’s doable that this half was dramatized, or that Steve did not combat the Crimson Guardian and fled the scene.
At this level, it is unclear precisely what Steve’s position shall be in Doomsday, as plot particulars are being rigorously stored beneath wraps. If the primary Avengers: Doomsday teaser trailer is any indication, his arc must contain time journey, as he’ll have to be taken from the previous to the current with the intention to combat Physician Doom. It stays to be seen what’s going to deliver him there and whether or not he’ll make any stops within the timeline alongside the best way.
Or possibly the Steve Rogers evil idea is on the coronary heart of the Crimson Guardian’s claims about Captain America. There are theories that Evans could possibly be secretly taking part in the villain, very similar to Robert Downey Jr. performs Physician Doom. His Doomsday character could possibly be a twist on Captain America serving Hydra.
If Avengers: Doomsday went in both route, the MCU would have had a transparent path to a enjoyable scene that confirms that Crimson Guardian was certainly telling the reality all alongside, although there’s good purpose to imagine he is mendacity.
